Default Xbox Series X and Forza Motorsport 7

If I am looking to learn Road America but don't want to build a PC and setup iRacing and the cockpit rig to go with it, can I get a good handle on the track using an Xbox Series X and Forza Motorsport 7?

Okay, what would be a good choice for a steering wheel and pedals for the Xbox?

G923 Logitech least expensive set that's worth a damn. $400 or so.

Beyond that, the sky is the limit. The high end Thrustmaster is about $1200 and the Fanatec, if you can get it, is probably $2K-$2400+

Is Project Cars 3 better than Forza Motorsport 7?

Assetto Corsa does not appear to have Road America.....

No chance before Christmas. One of the hottest consoles ever sold.

I finally was able to order an Xbox Series X. I had to join a Walmart club to do it but I nabbed one! Yay!

Now I have to decide what steering wheel/pedal cluster to get....
